The Legend of Zelda: A Link Between Worlds

New Zelda: A Link Between Worlds Trailer Shows Plenty Of Gameplay

The latest trailer for The Legend of Zelda: A Link Between Worlds is all gameplay, showing off new mechanics, tools, and weapons.

You'll see items like the flame and ice staffs in action, an octopus who grants weapon upgrades, and lots of 2D Link walking along walls.

The previous trailer for the game showcased more of the game's story, and revealed Lorule, the Hyrule antithesis, which you can check out here.

The Legend of Zelda: A Link Between Worlds is coming to 3DS (and 2DS which Nintendo has been making sure to point out in all of its new trailers) on November 22, which happens to be the same day as Super Mario 3D World.

The "meld into the wall" mechanic seems a little odd to me... hopefully it's explained well and fits the theme. Otherwise, this game looks like nostalgia heaven! Link to the Past was my absolute favorite title (Ocarina is a close second, don't worry).

I will be honestly surprised if I enjoy this even as much as Parallel worlds. Parallel Worlds has a different world map, and amazing difficulty and (obviously) better aesthetics since it's done in the same style as A Link to the Past.

This actually looks promising and the wall game-play seems less like a gimmick. I just hope they don't leave it at moving along a wall and add some 2D obstacles and enemies later in the game; otherwise it will just feel like a cumbersome way of getting around. But good on Nintendo none the less for coming up with a play mechanic that has some cool functionality and more importantly, possibilities. It's way better the ridiculous cat suits for Super Mario 3D Land on the Wii U.
